    I'm starting to wonder.......how much of the high price is due to trader speculation?

    $3.69 a gallon? Come on!

    $3.69 a gallon? That's it? That converts to less than a dollar a litre. Gas prices in Canada have been over a dollar a litre since at least 2005.

    Compressed air hybrids sound pretty cool.
